Really late reply, but I went to the show this fall and there wasn't really much in terms of Kaiju or Japanese vinyl. Plenty of old TMNT stuff from the 90's though.

 

I'm heading out tomorrow with the kids. Should be fun even though it's raining.

 

if it's not too rainy I'm going to drive up. I always get something fun there.

Sounds good.

If anyone is looking for anything in particular let me know.

 

I'm going to get there around 11am with my son, David. I will be wearing my new red santa, "It's a most wonderful time for a beer" shirt. You can't miss it. If you see me, come on up and say hi.

 

Gonna be the last one of these I go to. $8 to park, $6 ea adult and $3 for a 4 yr old. All to then pay shitty prices from greedy dealers. Fuck that place!

 

The 8 dollars was a complete rip off but I guess understandable considering they had like 3 events going on.
I went in with zero expectations so I loved seeing all the 80's cheap shit .

My kids loved it though. We hardly take my 4 and 6 years old to toy stores or conventions so to see bins and bins of cheap 2 to 5 dollar toys was great for them.
It's awesome that they can find joy in toys from 15 years ago.

 

damn... is it still going on tomorrow?
if so, and if anyone is going, i am looking for tmnt toys:
screwloose (wingnut's little sidekick) ~ $2

complete bebop ~ $10
complete rocksteady ~ $10
complete rat king ~ $7
complete casey jones ~ $8

They have a bunch of carded tmnt figures for like 5 dollars. My kids were oogling over them but I didn't want to purchase them knowing that they wouldn't appreciate mint figures. The more worn out the better. Let me know if you are still interested in march and I'll try to find you those guys. (March is the next show)

 

carded?!?!
bummer... i really should start going to toy shows and stop paying double on ebay

 

Anyone going again? I'll be there.

 

Sounds like fun. I hope Im in town.

Hoping to go. My son, David, is having his Tonsills out next week, so it depends on whether he feels like going.

Who are the special guests this time?
Edit:

 

Man, I miss the SJ toy show and Time Tunnel Toys. I guess the parking and admission did add up, but to me, it is no worse than the cost of a movie these days.

 

too bad vendors tables are all sold out...have some Godaikin's I need to let go of.

 

Oh man I missed it again! at myself

 

There is always next December!

 

Nice! Glad I dont have to wait a year. Do you know the date?

 

Dec 7

 

SJ toy show is honestly more for for me than San Diego Comic Con. I wish it was once a month.

 

Is this a good show for kaiju?
